Dude, you talk like you're a salty AF player that missed getting him a month ago!  Crazy.  Just admit he's been an amazing trade in and likely keeper.

Just giving my honest buyer beware opinion. I'm not sad I bought when I did but still not sure he's a keeper level until the end but I have no choice with limited trades

Might wait at least a week then hey...

Undoubtedly nothing changes with how he plays and he banners up though.

Seems like a weird thing to make up

From my perspective, weird things are the best things to make up

His KM have been down this year anyway so maybe not big deal e.g 75 v Broncos in R3 was with 50:50 split with Luai

Exactly right he’s brained it stupid decision by me not to get him. I’ve had some injuries like us all but I’ve had a few more poor decisions this year just how it rolls. Look up to Wolfy he is braining it again no fluke try listen to his wisdom he will downplay it but I see it.

Cheers mate. In that case, my trade in suggestion this week is the great Tommy Talau. Better late than never.

Sounds like Ivan is putting the C on his son this week and hoping for a rank rise

Is the 2 trades to get you to a decent 17?  Or are they luxury trades/upgrades?

Yeah to get to a full 17.

Looking at Trell, Carty, Hands to Cleary, Fifita, Starling.

That leaves me carrying McInnes, Nikora, Iro, Api as red dots for the week. Starling a bit speculative but he covers HOK this week and is hopefully playable longer term if he keeps the minutes.
Randall is another option, though that would mean forgoing Cleary for DCE I think without an extra trade.

For reference:

I went Fifita to Uto a few weeks back for numbers which was definitely wrong, though was mostly done to chase a monthly which ended up being a week longer than I thought anyway and ended up around 200th haha.

I know I actually apologise shouldn’t have even said it.

Just reading on discord that Joliffe is back in a fortnight guess that means abort Randall if you don’t have him I was considering him was worth thinking on but not anymore.

You hanging out with Granville?

Just saw Reuben Cotter on George st and loudly said his name explaining who it was to my girlfriend without realising he was right next to us and alas he heard me and made eye contact with me so I was too embarrassed to ask him if he will play next week

Any mail brother if Pryce will play or not?

Nah I get injury updates but unless I’m at training (rare lately) I don’t get any team selection info sorry bro

if you saw where he ended up it's not too late to go back and ask!

He's not a shoe in to be kicking for goal first week back mate.

Who else is there that could kick goals? Edwards is out. Oh I guess they have Schneider if he plays.
